A Great Way to Charge Car Battery by Driving

Are you stuck in the middle of the road? With the help of a manual transmission you can conveniently start the car that has a discharged battery. All you need is to push start the car and charge the battery while driving. The battery power of a car can be restored by driving and therefore a jump start from another vehicle is not required. Though driving can easily add battery power to a vehicle with an automatic transmission, still your car will need a jump in order to start the charged battery.
Easy instructions to follow:
Firstly, you need to do is to turn off everything that requires battery power. Things that involve power consumption are radios, air conditioning units and interior lights. You must always charge the battery during the day time and also in fine weather, so that you will not require headlights and windshield wipers too.
Secondly, try and push start your car with the dead battery, thereafter press the clutch and go into first gear. Get the help of another person to push start the car by slowly releasing the brakes. Now release the clutch rendering a little gas to get the vehicle running.
Thirdly, find out a low crowded area to drive the car at a consistent speed. For this type of driving and to charge the depleted battery, highway is the best place to be. City driving is not recommended as will not furnish an even place to drive and recharge the battery.
Fourthly, you need to continuously drive the car for atleast 30 minutes in order to charge the battery. Make sure you keep all the power sources off during this period of time. Half an hour driving is absolutely necessary to render the battery a good enough charge; else you can drive for long as well.
